US vs Iran: what we know about the latest exchange of attacks

The United States and Iran exchanged new attacks amid a fragile ceasefire. See below what we know about the case.

US strikes and interceptions
The US military said it attacked coastal surveillance radar sites in Iran on Friday night after shooting down four Iranian attack drones sent toward the Strait of Hormuz.

US Central Command said its forces also intercepted a wave of Iranian attacks overnight that targeted the Gulf states of Kuwait and Bahrain. No American service members were injured, it said.

What Iran says
Iranian state broadcaster IRIB reported that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps launched attacks overnight against a U.S. air base and other American installations in response to what it called "hostile actions" by the U.S. Army.

Iran called the US attacks on its radar sites a "clear violation" of the fragile ceasefire agreement. The Iranian Foreign Ministry said the country responded in a "vigilant, decisive and proportionate" manner.

How was the regional reaction to these attacks?
The Kuwaiti Ministry of Defense said on Saturday (6) that it "detected and neutralized" seven ballistic missiles within Kuwaiti airspace at dawn. Bahrain said it intercepted and destroyed three missiles and several drones launched from Iran. Neither country reported casualties, and both condemned the recent attacks.

Several countries in the region, including the United Arab Emirates, Egypt and Saudi Arabia, also condemned the Iranian attack on its Gulf neighbors, saying the attacks threaten the security and stability of the region.
